CC -!- FUNCTION: Cell surface GPI-bound ligand for Eph receptors, a family of
CC receptor tyrosine kinases which are crucial for migration, repulsion
CC and adhesion during neuronal, vascular and epithelial development.
CC Binds promiscuously Eph receptors residing on adjacent cells, leading
CC to contact-dependent bidirectional signaling into neighboring cells.
CC May play a role in the interaction between activated B-lymphocytes and
CC dendritic cells in tonsils.
CC -!- INTERACTION:
CC P52798; Q9BVK8: TMEM147; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-5241592, EBI-348587;
CC P52798; A5PKU2: TUSC5; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-5241592, EBI-11988865;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: [Isoform 1]: Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor, GPI-
CC anchor.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: [Isoform 2]: Secreted {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS:
CC Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=3;
CC Name=1; Synonyms=GPI-anchored;
CC IsoId=P52798-1; Sequence=Displayed;
CC Name=2; Synonyms=Secreted;
CC IsoId=P52798-2; Sequence=VSP_001448;
CC Name=3;
CC IsoId=P52798-3; Sequence=VSP_046707;
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the adult spleen, lymph node,
CC prostate, ovary, small intestine, and colon, and in fetal heart, lung,
CC liver and kidney. Also detected in hematopoietic cell lines.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ephrin family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-
CC ProRule:PRU00884}.
